Permit Ledges
★★★★☆
(283)
This is the most southern ball on Molasses Reef. This is a great start for a drift dive from the south end of the reef all the way to the north end. The average depth is about 25 feet and you can easily navigate to fire coral cave to reach a swim through.
Theres a good chance of seeing eagle rays, goliath grouper, and even hammerheads as they come in from the south end of the reef.
